IEW Online Writing Classes combine DVD instruction of Andrew Pudewa along with further teaching tips, grammar, grading and feedback from IEW Accredited Instructors Denise Kelley, Chardell Novotny, Cinda Tribble, and Pamela White.

• These classes are taught live using the Adobe Connect Web Conferencing platform where your students will
  • SEE a live video of their instructor and a Slideshow presentation of the materials

  • HEAR the instructor through their computer's headphone or speakers and be able to answer questions via
  • CHAT (typing) for all students to see.
• Students will watch the Student Writing Intensive DVD course or the Student Writing Intensive Continuation Course as part of their homework assignments.
• Students will submit writing assignments on Engrade or on the Internet so that the instructor can assess their work and provide helpful feedback.
• Parents are expected to be involved in the learning process, which includes attending classes or listening to the class recordings as often as possible and asking the instructor questions as often as needed. This will give students the best possible chance of success!

Important: If your student struggles with writing, we recommend beginning at one lower level, which will cover much of the same material but at a slower pace and with more practice with the concepts.
